《Sweetness Drowning: Callous Boss and Awkward Wife》C39. Eye for Eye, Tooth for Tooth
Advertisement
Yu Yu and Ko Chen sit face to face in the dining room. With all lights turned off and only two candles on, the atmosphere turns gentle and romantic.
Ko Chen’s handsome face looks more charming against the candlelight. Like a nympo she stares at him who seems to appear only in the soap opera. How can he be so close to her! Anyway, she must conquer him tonight.
Yu Yu makes up her mind with firm light in her eyes, which glow in the dark.
Ko Chen feels amused to see Yu Yu acting without disguise and so blatantly that even a fool can know her intention.
But Ko Chen decides to keep silent and do nothing in order to continue the interesting play with her.
“The color of the fried steak is pretty good.”
Ko Chen’s dull praise delights Yu Yu. She smiles like a blossoming flower with her hands holding her chin. Artificially and coquettishly she blinks and asks, “Really?”
With such an artificial woman Ko Chen struggles to refrain from vomiting. He even cannot help admiring himself for his calm behavior when facing such a woman with her clumsy performance.
Maybe it’s because her desire is so strong that Yu Yu doesn’t notice his strangeness at all. She raises her glass and says deliberately, “Chen, cheers. Thank you for your care for my mother and me.”
With this, she takes the lead in taking a sip, but her look concentrates on Ko Chen all the time. When she sees his taking a sip, an imperceptible curve emerges on the corner of her mouth.
Yu Yu tries to hide her excitement. Putting down the glass, she cuts a small piece of beef and puts it into her mouth with her lowered head, and chews it slowly. She is anxious to find a reason to ask Ko Chen to drink all the wine in the glass, but she is unaware that Ko Chen has seen through her trick.

She racks her brain to say something, but Ko Chen raises his glass before her words. An intangible smile emerges on his face and a deep but a little bit sexy voice reverberates in her ears. He remarks, “Thanks for making these dishes. This time, let me propose a toast to you.”
Things seem to go too smoothly. They chat while eating. At last, Yu Yu has much wine left, but Ko Chen has drained his wine.
Yu Yu keeps her countenance and observes his reaction. She starts to doubt the efficacy of the drug when seeing he is still eating the food calmly.
Is that drug her mother gave fake? Yu Yu casts beyond the moon. Actually she had some doubts about the drug at the very beginning, but Wang Feng made sure that it worked, so she forgot all her doubts, and prepared this meal.
But things are going beyond Yu Yu’s expectation now.
Ko Chen knows it’s about the time when seeing Yu Yu’s anxious face. He squints at her. With a hand over his forehead, he deliberately murmurs, “What kind of wine is it? Why am I so dizzy...”
The moment he says ‘dizzy’, he leans forward and bends over the table. The glass is knocked down by him and makes a crisp sound when falling on the ground.
Yu Yu walks to Ko Chen carefully and pokes him with fingers, calling softly, “Chen,Chen?”
His eyes are closed tightly with regular breath mixed with red wine.
Now she is sure that he has fainted. Her eyes spark with surprise, and she nervously looks behind, making sure there is no one around, and puts his arms over her shoulders and props him up.
Yu Yu exerts all her strength to keep her balance because Ko Chen is a muscle man, though he looks thin. But now she is in no mood to think of more for half of her plan has been achieved, and the only thing she should do is go back to her room, then her plan will be fulfilled thoroughly.

However, she is dragged back to reality from her fancies by the weight on her shoulder. She is unable to support a grown-up man, and she cannot find a servant to help her for anyone but a fool will know what happened.
And Wang Feng isn’t back after she was out. There is no one she can find to help her.
Suddenly, he groans when she doesn’t know what to do next.
Yu Yu thinks it is because the effect of the drug wears off and Ko Chen wakes up. In fright she is frozen there and doesn’t dare to move.
Actually it is Ko Chen who changes his way of acting when seeing Yu Yu doesn’t have any further movement, for fear that the play cannot continue if things are stuck here. Holding back his discomfort, he rubs her neck with eyes half-closed, saying, “You smell delicious.”
His intimate and ambiguous voice heats up the air between them. She turns her head incredibly but doesn’t dare to make a sound for fear that the same thing as the last time will happen again.
His eyes are half opened all the time. His big hands start to caress Yu Yu’s body restlessly.
Yu Yu feels all her emotions are activated and all the places touched by Ko Chen are ignited and need to be cooled down by doing something.
The moment she is held by Ko Chen tightly, an idea occurs to her, that is, the one who had the drug is Ko Chen, but why does she feel agitated and drifting in the cloud?
Ko Chen senses her desire and shows a disgusted expression which, however, is not observed by Yu Yu because they are lovers.
He cannot bear hugging her, though he persuades himself that it is just a play and he doesn’t have to mind too much. So he loosens her. Then he holds her hands like a drunken man, walking towards her room.
Yu Yu is completely stunned by his flirtation, not even thinking why he still knows the way to her room, though he faints because of the drug.
They open the door staggeringly. Walking into the room, he presses Yu Yu down on the bed. They are so close that their breathing is almost blended.
There is no light in the room, but the moonlight and light in the yard pour in through the curtains. With her eyes wide open, Yu Yu looks at him. Her heart beats so fast that it almost jumps up to her throat and the next second it will pop out.
She throws her hands around his neck passionately, trying to kiss him.
Just less than a centimeter away, Ko Chen pulls her away and opens his clear eyes abruptly.
“Yu Yu,you have really broadened my mind. ”

The Emperor's Concubine
[participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] The heroine is good and the villainess is evil. That was the absolute truth. That rule was undeniable as well as the fact that only the heroine would receive true love and her happy ending. Likewise, the malicious villainess would always suffer and leave the stage to clear the path for the perfect heroine in the end. So, for Blanche it felt like her world came crashing around her when she remembered the truth about her life. As the villainess in the typical romance novel “To Be Empress” she was fated to be condemned and abandoned by her lover. No matter how devoted she was to Theodore Estien, the emperor of Artias, she would only be the bratty concubine that would obstruct the heroine, who happened to be Theodore's lawful wife and the empress. In the end, the villainess would be deserted and executed. It was destined to happen like this, and yet she couldn't give up. She had to change the future. Preventing the romance between the main characters would get her killed. Much like trying to steer away from the enemies' intrigues, in which she was already caught up, would. But neither the heroine nor the emperor's political rivals would change the fact that Blanche loved the man that was supposed to be the heroine's. And no matter what happened she would always stay by her lover's side. So she wouldn't just follow the book's storyline and let her own doom arrive. Blanche would survive while trying to suppress all of the selfish desires that had made her the villainess. But was she truly fine with that? Did she not desire more than just surviving? Did she even have the right? Could the villainess ask for a happy end? Was she too brazen if she just wanted to stay with the man she loved and receive his affection? And wasn't there a bit more to this novel than she remembered? She didn't know and in the end that mattered little when the world around her changed with each day as more and more questions about the future and the past arose. "The Emperor's Concubine" will be updated thrice a week (usually on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays) *The Profanity tag was added due to the characters' occasional swearing, which should not happen too often.
